I'd love to be a virtual thing, Lisa, whatever it is So yes to lots of photos, and varieties and maybe even some seeds
Feeling excited too. You can't beat a virtual outing - unless its one with wine

Are the pies cottage? The one in the glass dish looks identical to the one we're having tonight, prepared on Monday.

That dish is a brilliant two portion size, but rubbish for freezing as it takes so much room up in the freezer. Foil dishes are brilliant for the freezer, but portion size is a bit big for one, too small for two.

Luckily the flour I use is on offer in Sainsbugs for £1 a bag and I can get 3 loaves out of that. The other costs apart from electric are negligible.

It's 75p a bag for brown or white at A1di if you have one convenient to you, NS.

i will never just run 5 miles, i cannot do it unless a lion is behind me!! Again Hazel you are making me very jealous!

You do reach a 'tipping point', Lisa - I've never been remotely sporty, but in January 4 yrs ago I started with the world's slowest jog to the postbox 100m up the road, Next day, ran there and back again. I built up by 100m per day so over the course of about 3 months and by Easter I'd got up to 5k, and you can pretty much keep going for ever once you get there (well, you know what I mean!)

Just put the clean bedding on the bed and it is calling to me Lisa Lisa cozy up in bed ....................

Clean sheets - best feeling ever!

Morning All Dentist yesterday, just a scale and polish required so booked next month, ouch! Have a good day

[Florence Fennel]

The good thing about the size of the dish Hazel is that my lunch today is Cottage Pie

[Lisasbolt]

Mornin Flo'nall

Looks like we have sprinkles of snow out there.
Pitch black so can't see properly...hope it looks pretty- always a good start to the day unless you have to scrape and defrost the car!...oh dear...memories!

The woodfire stayed in all night so it's nice and toasty .
I'm feeling tempted to make biscuits today after seeing Hazel's!
That , and playing with seeds, should make for a very pleasant day

What's everyone else up to?

Cottage pie eh? Mmmm...sounds like a good idea for tonight!

Morning all. Cold and wet here again today. Typical half term weather.
Don't know what our plans for today are as Han was sick yesterday. Then I was up and about with both of them last night when they both woke up twice. Get one settled and then the other wakes up. Typically the OH sleeps through it.
Anyway have a good day everyone

[Aberdeenplotter]

Frosty and really cold up here. Be another day indoor decorating.
